…I had no adolescent fantasies about Heather in her bra…
••
I did. And I was, like, 34. . .
********
Yeah, I'm 34 now, and I still linger over those pages. Time to dream up a Heather Hudson commission. Maybe a montage, with nothing but underwater shots in the background.
Lines on paper...

And I have to tell you, this is one sexy issue:
cover with a bra-clad Heather, opening page of Snowbird, Heather stripping,
Jeanne-Marie stepping out of the shower and being naked the whole scene,
even Marrina and Elizabeth Twoyoungmen are very pleasing to the eye.
This issue is also a great example of JB's ability to draw different body types.

Huh! Never noticed before that there's a line missing from the poem excepted on the splash. It's
supposed to read…
…there's the land. Have you seen it?
It's the cussedest land that I know.
From the big dizzy mountains that screen it,
to the deep, deathlike valleys below.

It was nice to see that Toronto was moved back to Lake Ontario in time for
this issue...

Hey - Ryan -- about needing a wingman....yeah, um, I feel all icky thinking about what you did to yourself back when you read this issue -- um, ah, um, I think I'll go it alone....
(actually, I had a liking for Paul Smith's X-Men women...)

If you want to hang out a couple of extra days, you can catch Billy Joel in Sacramento on your way home. I'd looooove to go too! :^)

After loving #11, missing #12, and being turned off by #13 due to Guardian's death, this was the issue that brought me back in and I stayed with AF (and JB!) the whole way through. Then, finally, after a number of months, I found a new favorite AF member to take Guardian's place: Sasquatch! Er, thanks for that one JB... Seriously, one of the things I loved best about AF (and JB's work in general) is that you never knew what was going to happen from in any given issue. Who kills off (for all intents) the two coolest characters in the book within a year of each other, yet keeps the book exciting and fun to read? Only John Byrne!

To the same place as odd socks and ballpoint pens, Glen!

JB, I hope you can answer this, since so much else has happened since then and Walter is back (where he belongs).
What would you have done with Walter's soul after killing Sasquatch and having his human body crumble away to nothing?
I cannot imagine you would have kept him in Box, for both his sake and Bochs'.

I saw Billy Joel in Okaland a few weeks ago -- talk about "where did youth go..."
I saw Van Halen (with Dave) in Oakland on Dec 22nd.
Next -- Lenny Kravitz in San Francisco MLK weekend.
